Traffic demand grows steadily, which is why problems often sneak up.
Like at the start of the day cycle when everyone heads to your industrial area to work. But that’s fine, because your two or three low-density neighbourhoods aren’t producing enough traffic to stress even the most basic road network.Īs your city begins to grow, increasing numbers of people will start needing to travel to the same places at the same time. With a badly-designed system, people and goods can’t get to where they’re going, causing widespread abandonment and potentially, the death of your once-flourishing settlement.Īt the start, you haven’t got the money to lay down a comprehensive, well-planned system of interchanges. In a typical Cities: Skylines city, managing traffic is usually your biggest challenge.
Better traffic management: a pedestrian-friendly neighbourhood.
